Having an issue with one of my 1959 Tbirds (Has 352 V8). It was last driven to a car lot down in St. Louis quite some time ago where it sat until I bought it.
I went to bypass the ignition switch. I connected a wire from the battery terminal to the terminal on the coil (Correct terminals). I connected the two terminals on the solenoid and got sparks. No turn over, just some good sized sparks and slight burns on the screwdriver. Gas tank is probably empty, but I thought I would at least hear it turn over. Am I possibly forgetting something here? Any ideas on why this is happening? Any suggestions?
